the  nation's  education  system.  Liechtenstein's  society  and  economy  are  heavily  reliant  on
            knowledge and innovation, making it crucial to adapt education to address emerging challenges
            such as digitalization and climate change. The strategy aims to ensure educational success for all

            and promote lifelong learning opportunities.

            Liechtenstein also seeks to enhance the management of education development processes and
            foster a diverse range of educational pathways, enabling seamless entry, transfer, and re-entry into
            the system. The government intends to bolster research, teaching, and continuing education in the
            University of  Liechtenstein's  core  areas  of  focus:  "Digitalization  and  Innovation,"  "Planning  and
            Sustainability," and "Responsibility and Society."

                                     Why this case study is a success / best practice?


            The  Liechtenstein  case  study  is  considered  a  best  practice  because  it  demonstrates  a  forward-
            thinking  and  adaptable  approach  to  education.  By  acknowledging  global  trends,  promoting
            inclusivity  and  lifelong  learning,  and  aligning  with  key  university  focus  areas,  Liechtenstein's
            Education  Strategy  2025plus  provides  a  model  for  effective  education  planning  and
            implementation. The strategy focusses on enhancing the management of education development
            processes  and  fostering  diverse  educational  pathways  is  crucial  for  adult  education  centers.  It
            enables the creation of flexible programs that allow adults to seamlessly enter, transfer, or re-enter
            the education system based on their evolving needs and career paths.                                  37

                                           National Academy for Digital Skills

            Greece has made significant progress in improving its digital skills over the past few years. The

            country's digital skills score is now 40.1 on the Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI 2022), which
            is slightly below the EU average of 44.2. However, there is still more work to be done to address the
            digital divide and ensure that all Greeks have the skills they need to succeed in the future workplace.

            A good practice in the country is the National Academy of Digital Skills, founded in 2021, has the
            aim of constituting the national portal for all digital training providers, both public and private,
            hosting, at the moment, approximately 300 courses and aiming to augment its collection of online
            courses as a way to enable everyone in the country to acquire basic, intermediate, and advanced
            digital skills.


            Under this framework, a self-assessment tool is provided in order for people to be able to determine
            their individual learning paths. Adding to that, the Ministry of Digital Governance is processing a
            national digital competence framework and a certification system for digital skills in line with the
            European digital competence framework.
